It's the thing I've spent five years battling with in OO including parts or all of your instructions plus instructions and posts (from me and others) on other OO forums, you name it.

I don't have time go to into the details - but simply, autofit column width and height, with text-wrapping, that can somehow also be constrained, when I choose, by a final non-auto changing of a width here or a height there, without disrupting the rest of the autofitting, and the wrapping will still work fine without any text cut off and weird little "more text'' arrows.
